I don't want to interact with a cashier either but fuck if I want to scan my own shit either.
It's also way more awkward when something goes wrong and now I have to initiate.
"Warning! Shopping bag content is 0.00003pg heavier than expected. Please call an assistant or remove the excess items."
Thankfully, Walmart stopped weighing items entirely. Not sure how it affects theft, but it sure makes the checkout process smoother. Don't need to wait after scanning each item. Don't need take reusable bags out of your cart. And they replaced almost all of their checkout lanes with self checkouts.
Too bad Walmart is evil, because their checkout is 👌 and Sam's scan-and-go is just 💦. Every other store is just bad UX.
Doesn't every store have cameras everywhere recording everything?
These detect extra things you didn't scan. I had to have an employee come check my items because I was using a cardboard flat to hold the canned goods I was buying. It locked up as soon as I moved the cardboard to the bagging area.
They always had that.
